"the Descent"



"Search and Rescue"

Aaaaaahhhh!!! I was making sure my Tivo was going to record everything, and accidently read the description for the finale...

I boldly predict:

Someone good is actually bad
Someone bad is actually good
Someone dead is actually alive
Someone alive is actually a clone

B.A.

You forgot:

Sydney will cry.

Dixon and/or Sydney will tell Sloane how disgusted they are w/ him and they don't trust him for one second...

Jack Bristow will make Jack Bauer look like a chicken-shit bastard.

Meatpants

Is anyone else angry they wrapped up the Sloan Clone? That was by far the most interesting idea they've had since Sydney's lost years, and they just blew it. His interrogation scene last week opened up all kinds of story ideas (how do we know Sloan isn't the Sloan Clone?), and then they just dumped it.

And sadly, even with all of that known before hand, I predict I (we) will still watch it .

I have been so disappointed in this season that I believe I'm going to sell the past three seasons that i own on dvd. Its just ruined the entire series. So dull and predictable.

Isn't that the Wishmaster?

"Yes, you are on comms"

B.A.

Love the comms line.

Like how they brought the Covenant back into things - they have hardly mentioned anything from last season - it was getting kind of annoying.

This show has definitely kicked ass lately.

MrX

I enjoyed both episodes. The comms line and Marshall's face right after that were great.

Lena Olin is still a top flight MILF, her reaction when she realizes who Nadia is was great

OUTRAGEOUS KICKA$$ EPISODE!! (or episodes)

Damn you Mr. Abrams! Just when I was about to give up, you reel me back in! Now I'm angry that ABC is moving this to Thursdays.

Angela Bassett, Isabella Rossellini, Sonia Braga, and Lena Olin - "Alias" can attract these great actresses and LOST can only muster an invisible "monster" and a cloud of black smoke?

-- Superb acting from the cast. Loved the glances/exchanges between Jack and Irina.

-- If only Elena shot pretty boy Vaughn and not Dixon. He is definitely the weakest link.

From the previews:




ALIAS is back!!

Yeah, the "Oh are we on comms?", then Jack biting out "YES, you are on comms", that was hilarious! The exchange where Vaughn asked Jack the question was great too, as was the exhange where Jack came back to Vaughn and changed his answer.

Jack has such a gift for facial expression, there were countless times during this ep where you could see so much was going on behind his eyes... watching the eye-play between him and was priceless.

I didn't think the "reunion" between her and Nadia was that great, but I'm not a fan of Nadia anyways. To all the speculation that , I say I HOPE so, I can only , she's my least fav character on this show, brings the soap opera more than the others IMO.

Overall, I think this was one of the better episodes... nice that they brought back in the Covenant, nice to see cast members brought back, nice to see the tie-in to previous seasons, nice to see the Rambaldi angle again. On the other hand, was rolling my eyes at the last scene, getting a little comic-book-sci-fi there...

aktick

Hehe, exactly what I was thinking. But I guess we had to expect something insane like that at some point, or all the Rimbaldi stuff would have been just talk.

Finally saw the episode and this series has been on a roll. They may have started out slow but the writers have managed to crank out some good ones lately. I like how we're seeing references to previous seasons with more Mueller device, Elena running the Covenant, and the helix experiment. The comms line was hilarious and of course Irina slugging Jack was pretty priceless.

Jeremy517

That's ok. They spoiled it for most everyone else when the opening credits rolled...

I liked the part where they were going through their rooms & Sidney had all of the weapons. My sister & I were discussing the ep & were kind of surprised about a 2 hour show that wasn't a season finale.

MrX

Alias and Lost were supposed to have 90 minute finales. ABC made Lost a 2 hour finale next week to compete with the American Idol finale so Alias became 2 hours this week.

B.A.

I liked when they were asking Sydney why she needed all of those weapons at home, particularly the hidden drawer full of knives.

Sir_Fireboard

That reminded of Lost when Locke has 3 or 4 hundred knives

Those were great episodes, but it sucks that it took so long for Alias to find its feet after that shitty beginning to the season.

Chew

Actually, it makes me wonder if that was done on purpose? Bring in the new viewers with easy, self-contained storylines and then slowly work up to what Alias has been about for it's entire run?

JLB

Yeah...watching the episodes, which I sooooooooooooooo loved, I thought the same thing. I said that I felt there could be another "reboot" coming.

Which is fine by me, especially if we get another "red/black" type of moment......
